The satellite DNA AflaSAT-1 in the A and B chromosomes of the grasshopper Abracris flavolineata

Abstract Background Satellite DNAs (satDNAs) are organized in repetitions directly contiguous to one another, forming long arrays and composing a large portion of eukaryote genomes. These sequences evolve according to the concerted evolution model, and homogenization of repeats is observed at the in...
